Struggle in the early Tang Dynasty

"Guest officer, what are your orders?"

"I can't talk about orders. Xiao Er, did the people at that table just have no money to pay?"

"Isn't it? Oh, I'm so unlucky, why did I meet such two..."

"Okay, okay, don't talk about it. Isn't it just twenty cents? What a big deal. I paid the money for this young man. You put their money in our account."

"Are you out?"

"Of course. What? You want us to pay first, too?"

"How can it be? You look different from them. You are rich and powerful, but they look like..."

Guo Ye was afraid that the guy would say something nasty again, so he interrupted: "Get back. Don't disturb our meal."

"Then take it easy."

The man left, and Mr. Wen Sheng came forward, cupped his hands slightly, and said, "I'm in Li Yi's mansion, it's polite here!"

"What?" Guo Ye's expression changed suddenly, and he said, "Your name is Li Yifu?"

Chapter 2064 Tang Dynasty's No. [-] Courtier

Mr. Wen Sheng was taken aback by Guo Ye's expression, and said, "That's right, that's my name. Is there anything wrong?"

No, of course not.The nearly 300 years of the Tang Dynasty, according to the conclusions of later generations, produced thirteen treacherous ministers.

Among these thirteen people, eight people lived in the late Tang Dynasty.At this time, the imperial court was extremely corrupt, and it was not surprising that several famous treacherous officials came out.

The strange thing is that the five treacherous ministers lived in peace and prosperity.At this time, the government is generally clear, and the ability to go down in history with the name of a treacherous minister is evident.

Among these five people, Li Yifu is one of them, and can even be regarded as the most outstanding one.

He has a nickname called "Sword in Smile", and Li Linfu's "Sword with Honey and Belly", they can be called double walls, and they are indistinguishable from each other. They are tied for the first place among these five people.

These two not only have no bottom line in doing things, but more importantly, they are very capable.During his prime ministership, he not only committed heinous crimes, but also managed the country in an orderly manner.

I would rather offend a gentleman than a villain.

Even if Guo Ye was granted the title of "King of Qin" at this time, and he had just done a big favor to this treacherous minister, he couldn't help but feel a chill in his heart.

He quickly stood up, cupped his hands, and said, "There's nothing wrong. It's just a little bit of word-testing skills, and hearing your name, I have some feelings."

"Could it be that my name is not good?"

"Then how can it be? Good! It's really great. It's too expensive, too expensive. I dare not say too much, at least you will have no problem being a prime minister in your life. But..."

"how?"

"According to my inference, at your current age, you should already be an official. Why are you still so tight?"

The clerk was right in front of him, and his face was full of disbelief when he heard the words, and said, "Just him? Return to office? Stop joking."

Li Yifu sighed slightly, and said: "Now that things have come to an end, I'm sorry for my friend if I don't reveal my real identity. Xiao Si, show him!"

The book boy pulled his chest out and said: "You're blind! My son is not an ordinary person, he is now the county magistrate of Qipin. It's just that he hasn't taken up his post yet!"

"Yoyo, what about the county magistrate of Qipin? Why doesn't the magistrate of Qipin not live in the post station, but come to our small shop to pay on credit? Let me tell you, although you say that you don't pay taxes for bragging. But pretending to be an official is decapitation." sin!"

"You still don't believe me?" The book boy reached out his hand from his pocket, took out a document, and said, "Look, what is this? It has the seal of the Ministry of Officials on it, so it can be faked? "

"That..." The guy took it over, his expression changed drastically, and he said, "A villain really has eyes that don't know Mount Tai! You...you old man has a lot of people, don't be as knowledgeable as a villain..."

"Go!" Li Yifu waved his hand generously and said, "Those who don't know don't blame it."

"Thank you, thank you."

The man rolled and crawled away, Li Yifu turned around and said, "Can I sit here?"

"of course can."

Li Yifu sat down and said, "I wonder if I could ask your name and name?"

"You're welcome. No need, my surname is Guo and my name is Xiaobao. As for this one, he is my sworn brother named Lei..."

Lei Shuyao answered, "My name is Lei Shuheng."

As for Qin Yingkong, Kong'er and the others, they are dressed as servants, so there is no need to introduce them.

Li Yifu did not suspect him, nodded and said: "So it's Brother Guo and Brother Lei."

Guo Ye doesn't want to have anything to do with him, so it's better to keep a respectful distance from this kind of villain.

So he laughed and said: "You are a seventh-rank official, but we are just ordinary businessmen, and we dare not call Li Guanren brothers."

"Where, where. I am also from a poor family, and my status is not much higher than the two."

"The past was the past, and the present is the present. Now that you are an official of the imperial court, it is naturally different."

"The imperial court ordered officials?" Li Yifu smiled wryly, and said, "It's just dry bones in the tomb! I'm afraid my surname Li will not have many days to live. What are you talking about ordering officials but not ordering officials?"

Guo Ye said: "Don't belittle yourself. Didn't I just say that? At least you have the distinction of being a prime minister. The good days are still long."

"Prime Minister? You made a mistake. Do you know where I am going?"

"Of course I don't know."

"I'm going to Shiquan County, Maozhou, Jiannan Road to take up my post."

Lei Shuyao didn't know the glorious deeds of this treacherous official. Hearing this, she blurted out: "What a coincidence? We are also going to Maozhou! Then can we go with you on this journey? You are the magistrate of Shiquan County , you can take care of us a lot then!"

"What? Are you going to Maozhou too? What are you doing there?"

"Uh... selling medicinal materials." Guo Ye explained: "We are merchants who sell medicinal materials. I heard that Maozhou's musk is famous all over the world. We want to sell some and come to Chang'an to sell them."

"Hey! You really... listen to me, this Maozhou is really impossible to go to!"

"Why can't I go?"

"Don't you know yet? Now Jiannan Daoya, Qiong, and Meizhou are all against each other, and Maozhou is next to these three states, and it will not be long before it will be affected. Why are you going to Maozhou to collect medicinal materials? ? Clearly to die!"

Contrary to Li Yifu's expectations, the few people in front of him did not show any signs of panic.Especially that little brother Guo, who was even more indifferent, said: "It doesn't matter, wealth and wealth are sought after. The three states rebelled, and the price of musk will definitely skyrocket, so we brothers should go."

"But it's dangerous there..."

"Maozhou is dangerous, and we people are not vegetarians." Guo Ye said confidently.Now that he can't part ways with Li Yifu, no normal businessman would refuse to go with the county magistrate.

Li Yifu was willing to sit down and talk to Guo Ye and others, on the one hand because of the so-called "favor of a meal".But more importantly, he still had some delusions about Guo Ye's so-called prophecy.
